Boomerang. It's all Wrong

 

You know I'm a rhymer

From over the sea

Throwing my boomerang

In circles. You see

 

I hear you all thinking

Is he really real

Or taking the piss

If so, what's the deal?

 

Our boomerangs come

With sticker removed

Which said 'Made in China'

Then aborigine grooved

 

The grooves are then filled

With mock aborigine art

And sold off as genuine

In tourist-type marts

 

This is all wrong

So bloody-well wrong

This is where true

Aboriginal art should belong

 

Oh, by the way

When circling our 'rangs

We engage in the sport

Of inter-air prangs
